Bailar al Sol, "Dance in the Sun" Intermediate Solo

$6.00

Bailar al Sol, or “Dance in the Sun”, is inspired by a style of music called, “Ranchera Valseada”. “Ranchera” or “Canción Ranchera” is a genre of traditional music from Mexico. “Valseada” is the Spanish word for Waltz.

Mexico’s cultural influence is strong in the state of Texas - we love to hear this type of music played by the Mariachi bands: with their unique instruments like the Guitarrón (big bass guitars) , Vihuela (5 string) Guitars, Violins, Trumpets, and Singers, as they accompany the beautiful Folklórico Dancers.

Written in the key of F Major, in a fast 3/4 Time Signature (with a feel of “One”), and in a “A-B-C-A-Coda” form. The “A” section features a traditional Spanish type melody with iconic 6ths and triplet turns that make you feel like a twirling dancer. The Left Hand accompaniment leaps along in a Latin style Bass line and mimics the plucked Bass guitar. The “B” section offers an abrupt change to an A Major Key center, adding some drama! The “C” section takes off with a beautiful ascending scale-like, lyric melody that leads us to the climax of the piece in measure 59 - 66. This sequenced figure builds and rushes ahead, until we finally find our way back to the “A” section in measure 67.

Time length. (01:45). Piano Solo for Early Intermediate to Intermediate Pianists. Perfect for Recitals. Latin. Waltz. (4 Pages)

This STUDIO LICENSE grants multiple copies in YOUR Studio ONLY. Thank you for honoring the composer’s work by not sharing with other teachers.
